Unlock your Potential: Boarding at St Peter’s School, York

At St Peter’s, being engaged, happy and active is a way of life for our boarders.

Based on a 47-acre green campus and founded in 627AD – the fourth oldest school in the world – we are at the heart of historical York. Only ten minutes’ walk away from York Minster, we are their choir school, educating choristers and enjoying regular school services.

Academically strong, we inspire all pupils to gain the qualifications, skills, interests and values needed for life after school through our extensive co-curricular programme.

Boarding gives pupils the gift of time to finesse talents, lifelong friendships across the world, independence, and resilience. You only have to follow our social media to see how vibrant boarding life is every day, and on weekends.

St Peter’s is exceptionally happy and friendly. Pupils leave equipped with the keys for life and the confidence to turn them.
